Bath resealing in Harbledown without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

FAQs for Harbledown
Are there extra charges for Harbledown?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How much does bath resealing cost in Harbledown?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What we are called out for in Harbledown
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Unsealed corners
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you cannot clean out
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you are in Harbledown and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
